From Mobile Suit Gundam 00V, Deborah Galiena's crimson-colored GNX-604T Advanced GN-X joins the HG Gunpla series!
The custom mobile suit piloted by the United Nations Forces ace is recreated with its distinctive red and white color scheme, reproduced through molded colors.
The kit comes equipped with a wide selection of weapons, including the Proto GN Lance, Advanced GN Beam Rifle, GN Beam Saber, and GN Shield.
The Advanced GN Beam Rifle features a gimmick that allows a GN Beam Saber to be attached to the tip of its barrel. The Proto GN Lance, a large close-combat weapon, also features its characteristic color scheme reproduced through molded parts.
About the Advanced GN-X
The GNX-604T Advanced GN-X was developed as an improved version of the late-production GN-X following the United Nations Forces' victory over Celestial Being.
Although the original GN-X units were produced in limited numbers, additional units were manufactured after the conflict. These late-production machines played an important role as the world moved toward unification, fighting against forces opposed to the disbandment of their national militaries.
The Advanced GN-X was developed in response to battlefield requests and was provided in limited numbers, primarily to ace pilots of the United Nations Forces.
Its upgraded design features a compound antenna on the head that improves search and communication capabilities, along with the ability to control GN Drive Tau-powered mobile suits under its command.
The shoulders feature additional mounting latches for expanded weapon compatibility, while the thighs are equipped with GN Verniers to improve mobility. The mobile suit also features increased thrust output and enlarged GN Verniers throughout its body.
These upgrades improve its performance but also make the Advanced GN-X more difficult to control, placing a greater burden on its pilot.
One of the Advanced GN-X's greatest strengths is its ability to be customized to match the characteristics of its pilot.
Despite its limited production numbers, the mobile suit achieved an extremely high mission accomplishment rate by maximizing the abilities of its ace pilots through individual tuning.
Deborah Galiena's crimson Advanced GN-X is one such custom machine, featuring a distinctive color scheme and pilot-specific adjustments.
Another Advanced GN-X pilot, Amy Zimbalist, had his machine tuned with its GN Vernier safety limiters disabled. This resulted in highly unpredictable movement, earning him the nickname "Steel Cowboy."
The Advanced GN-X's development data was later used in the development of the GNX-607T GN-XII. Its Proto GN Lance, initially adopted as a trial weapon, was also later utilized by the GNX-609T GN-XIII.
With the later GN-X receiving the designation GN-X I, the Advanced GN-X can be considered its equivalent of a GN-X 1.5.
Even after newer mobile suits entered service, the Advanced GN-X remained capable of outperforming more advanced machines in certain scenarios, thanks to its pilot-specific tuning and the abilities of its ace pilots.
